POSTER: computer news   ||   ARM SUPPORT FOR 7-NM PROCESS TECHNOLOGY TSMC PACKAGE FOR DESIGNERS	DATE:2016-12-09
In official press release, ARM company announced the availability of Artisan physical IP package for the design of chips, taking into account features of 7-nm FinFET process technology  TSMC.  In particular, package licensing rights acquired by Xilinx to design FPGA-matrices,  SoC and other products.  It is expected that the first digital designs using ARM Artisan platform will appear in the first half of 2017, and the chips samples in the 7-nm silicon will be released before the end of the same year. Ready platform for designing a 7-nm chips allows rough estimate the benefit from the transition to the current 16-nm solutions in the 7-nm.  Now ARM representatives suggested that the 7-nm chips will help keep productivity at 3 GHz, while reducing consumption by 20% compared to 16-nm FinFET process technology.  We also add that Artisan IP package for the 7-nm TSMC does not allow for the use of EUV-lithography, and relies solely on advanced immersion lithography with a 193-nm scanners. ARM Artisan IP Package for the 7-nm process technology required significant improvement.  Firstly, in the transition to the 7-nm process designers face the background (natural) radiation will affect the operation of any part in the memory chip.  Second, the wiring conductors becomes more challenging due to the effects of such efforts as crosstalk and electromigration.  Third, to reduce the chip area of an additional agreement with the metallization layer (BEOL) and crystal (FEOL).  Each of these tasks, the new package helps to solve successfully. All memory is now supported by the hardware error correction mechanisms to reduce the effect of radiation.  Electromigration and noise can reduce the special package that is responsible for power distribution lines.  Optimization of power wiring allows to reduce by 10% the use of the chip area increases and the crystal surface recycle by 20% (from 60% to 80%).  Designing metallization layer now takes into account more nuanced chip architecture.  Additionally, the package is implemented memory array design method taking into account the SRAM memory cell structure that allows  to optimize the arrays.   Select Rating : Currently 10.00/10 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 46815 Rating: 10.0/10 (4 votes cast) ARM support for 7-nm process technology TSMC package for designers	Add Comment ( 1 ) ARM SUPPORT FOR 7-NM PROCESS TECHNOLOGY TSMC PACKAGE FOR DESIGNERS

POSTER: computer news   ||   CHINESE PROCESSORS BY AMD LICENSE, GET INTO THE MARKET IN 2018	DATE:2016-12-09
The joint venture with the Chinese company THATIC this year acquired the right to use some AMD technology in the design x86-compatible processors to create their own microprocessors targeted for use in China server infrastructure.  At first, AMD will receive milestone payments, until the development of appropriate processors is carried out, and after the start of serial production, they give way to deductions from each sold copy. AMD Devindera Kumar CFO  shared  interesting information about the company's plans.   If you move in the transcript, in chronological order, you can find  AMD CFO arguments about the timing of revenue from sales of processors manufactured by a joint venture with  Chinese.  As becomes clear from Devindera Kumar comments this will come no earlier than 2018.  Because outside of China, these processors will not be sold, for the inhabitants of other regions of the world  The Chinese market server components is the second largest in the world.

POSTER: computer news   ||    ONE OF AMD VEGA VARIETIES WILL BE RELEASED IN THE MIDDLE OF NEXT YEAR	DATE:2016-12-09
December was rich  events for investors, with the participation of AMD representatives, although the month has just begun.  We already have in the archive statements of two senior employees  AMD, according to which graphic solutions with Vega architecture for customers and enthusiasts will be released in the first half of 2017.   AMD CFO Devinder Kumar at Barclays Technology Conference reported that GPUs with Vega architecture will be released in mid-2017.  CFO admits that compete with NVIDIA in this segment will be difficult, but systematic work is designed for many years, and AMD management believes that the company will be able to regain its place in the sun in this market segment.  Especially because CUDA is a closed platform, and AMD is betting on more affordable solutions. Generally, the value of GPUs for the company's business since the acquisition of ATI ten years ago, has increased significantly.  It is not limited to the creation of hybrid CPUs with integrated graphics.  Devinder Kumar believes that the GPU will be in demand outside of the PC market.  In the coming years the market of graphics processors will grow steadily.  And the fact that there are only two major players, only adds more excitement as recognized by CFO AMD.

POSTER: computer news   ||   AMD HINTED THAT NOT INCLINED TO LICENSE TECHNOLOGY TO COMPETITORS	DATE:2016-12-09
Kumar said that AMD prefers to enter into a licensing agreement for the right to use their designs in those cases when it is not willing to present itself in a certain market segment.  This alone is a statement casts doubt on the reality of the deal with Intel - both companies produce processors with integrated graphics. Secondly, the financial director of AMD admitted to the selection of suitable licensees very carefully.  At least in key areas of activities it is true - the licensee must not be a direct competitor to AMD.  Although Devinder Kumar did not mention Intel in any context. In the future, as recognized by AMD's chief financial officer, the company would like to enter into one or two license agreements per year.   Select Rating : Currently 10.00/10 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 46812 Rating: 10.0/10 (4 votes cast) AMD hinted that not inclined to license technology to competitors	Add Comment ( 1 ) AMD HINTED THAT NOT INCLINED TO LICENSE TECHNOLOGY TO COMPETITORS
